Description

Annual. Blooms from spring to fall frost. 4-6 tall, 12" spread. Full sun. A mass of intensely rich, deep blue flowers. This is the upright lobelia that adds a dazzling punch of color to any setting. Try growing in pots, rock gardens, borders, hanging baskets, or as a ground cover for any small bare patch of soil. Flowers are so prolific; the foliage is often not seen. In mild winter areas, it will grow and bloom in the winter. Under ideal conditions, it will reseed and return the following year. Germination is slow (15-20 days), but the full season of color is well worth the wait! Eye-catching when paired with other brightly colored annuals such as small gold or orange marigolds.
